  • These stay on the stick. Are full of cleaning product and WORK!

Style: 30 Refills Original

Besides the fact these are wasteful, probably bad for the environment because they are slow to decay into compost and may be toxic to groundwater and soil - these are very convenient, stay on the stick well without falling into the toilet to clog the system and they clean well. I am not sure why they are angularly shaped but oh well. If you are as loose occasionally with your environmental sensitivity as I am at 80, handicapped and slow- give them a try. I may not continue to use them but gee they are easy, fast and efficient! Just don’t let them go loose and down the toilet drain! They will cost you grief and money if so. ... show more

  • Amazing Product!

Style: 30 Refills Original

There isn't much to say about this item except that or arrived as expected and they are refills for the toilet wands that we have in place of the traditional toilet brushes. Nothing was damaged. The box was secured and delivered to the door of our apartment. Having an option for refills in bulk is great! The smell is fresh and clean nothing different from the smell of cleaning products. It does clean pretty good though for a disposable item. It's easy to use and we will never go back to toilet brushes or anything like that as long as they continue to make products like these. ... show more

  • Much better than buying the small packs

Style: 30 Refills Original

We use these all the time, and normally buy the "grocery store" small packs. I love that I could buy this big pack! They are not for deep cleaning, as they are not sturdy enough. But for general cleaning they are great.

  • I REALLY wanted to like it!!!

Style: 30 Refills Rainforest Rush

This product was one I read reviews about and was honestly pretty excited to buy and use! I’ll be honest, I like a clean home, and have zero problem putting in the effort to make it that way! So cleaning products that work make me happy! The first package of the scrubbies I got with the wand was amazing! I mean it hit the grooves, up under the rim, all the way in the bottom where that really old hard brush still never got. I was massively impressed! Welp, used that package up and had the refills sent so I could keep my toilets shining! First one out of the package disappointed me. The top plastic separated from the scrubbie part but stayed on the wand and I had to use the wand to fish it out. Thought I was probably too aggressive with it and broke it. Next time, I went slower just to make sure it wasn’t me. It wasn’t. Now I know how to go slow and expect it to come off, which it does. I’ve only flushed one so far but they disintegrate so no worries! I’ll also be contacting the company because I know for a fact they can do better! Would have given it 5 stars…but…it keeps breaking apart from the plastic that holds it, almost immediately. ... show more
